If you happen to abandon this quest given by the treasure chest inside the cave (as I did), you'll no longer be able to go back in as the entrance will be blocked. As mentioned by Sentro, you can kill yourself in front of the cave and resurrect on the other side of the rocks, go to the end of the tunnel and pick up the quest again. Wowhead shows two spawn points for this treasure chest, maybe I could've gotten the southern one instead of dying to go back in the cave?

Let's see if I get this straight.The quest rewards you with 236k experience...but you can only get the quest once you are level 90, meaning that you no longer earn experience........Fail.

So, how did Fish get out of the cave?

From the description "... detailed farming notes, drawings of plants, ..." I naturally expected to be rewarded with some unique seeds.Very disappointing ending.

Updates as of patch 5.3:

- Old Man Thistle's Treasure now contains 100 gold, in addition to one of every blue-quality Pandarian gem, one Primal Diamond, and two new items:

- Cave can now be exited once quest is complete by clicking on the rocks, the same way you entered. You no longer have to hearth out or die.

(Note to the above) -- If you are Exalted w/Tillers and Exalted w/all Farm Friends, it is now possible to enter the cave before you have obtained the Old Map from the Enormous Cattail Grouper. You can kill all the spiders (which drop no loot, except the levelled Toxic spider at the end) but when you go to leave the cave, you cannot click on the rocks to get back out, forcing you to hearth or die.

The easiest way to find the Seedkeeper is to go in Nana Mudclaw's house and go upstairs then out the back. It is a short jump and you land right in front of the cave.Her house is at the top of HalfHill.

Seedkeeper Shing Sing can be found inside a small cave kind of hidden by a tree and a building. The entrance is located at 54.38, 47.51.
